Gifted and Talented Students Shouldn't Be Left Behind

Gifted and Talented Students Shouldn't Be Left Behind! What does it take to motivate gifted students? Well, gifted students usually dislike completing worksheets to which they already know all the answers. A regular classroom teacher might allow the gifted student to complete part of an assigned worksheet and then move on to a critical thinking activity. Perhaps, the student could create an activity for the class that goes along with the lesson. An extension activity created by the gifted student may be able to reach students that normally wouldn't have success with the lesson. Sometimes, peers can teach each other better than we teachers can. This, in turn, motivates the gifted student to participate in the lesson instead of being left behind.

Multicultural Winter Holiday Bulletin Board Ideas

Hi Everyone, With all of the Winter Holidays and sharing Christmas around the world, I thought I would share a few ideas I have for the season. Because I currently teach music, I have several songs posted from our textbook about the Winter Holidays. For example, I have some secular songs like "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" and "Jingle Bells." I also have a Chanukah song, a Christmas carol from Germany, a Pinata Christmas song from Mexico, "Feliz Navidad," and a Kwanzaa song. This time of year is so much fun to share various cultures!

Teachers Keeping a Positive Attitude in the Classroom

Do some days seem overwhelming with the amount of work you have along with the behavior that is taking place in the classroom? Sit back...count backwards from 10, and be thankful you have a job! Does that seem tough? Maybe. But we sometimes think that because we are teachers, that the work is not supposed to be difficult. I'm not sure where we came up with that idea. Work is work. Just because it is not manual labor, doesn't mean it is going to be easy. Your feet and back probably still hurt. The stress will most likely still be larger than life. But we can deal with it. Remember this...stress is normal. We just have to learn to deal with it. If you find that you are overworked, then perhaps you can stop by the deli, on the way home, to get dinner instead of cooking after a long day of work. Sit in the hot tub, if you have one. Get help in the classroom from parent volunteers...they might be able to copy papers for you. Buy teaching resources that can help you,
